After years of disappointment at the Tri-Service Clay Shooting Championships ... there is some hope that the RAF Team will do well this year

Okay Gents, the time has come to finish this one. (apologies I still can't get the quoting system to work for me, so cut and paste).

So in third place: EyesFront

With: Irritated by the success of the Olympic archery competition at Lords, Yorkshire Cricket Club vowed to go one better at Headingly

Second goes to: LowObservable

With: Ladies and gentlemen, if you turn your gaze now to the Laffan's Plain end of the airfield you will see the latest example of British weapons engineering, capable of devastating a wide target area with incendiary chemicals and high-velocity fragments....

....and the Bloodhound will XXX your XXX up, too.

But the winner today is: 622

With: I don't know what happened to your wife Vicar, I simply said 'some choppers gone right across the pitch with his weapon dangling'....and she fainted!


Oh and an honourable mention for: Fox3WheresMyBanana

With: "S.A.M. Missile" aroused little suspicion at No 7 on the RAF team list. Putting 'him' on at Mid On took a while, but ensured the RAF winning the 1967 Tri-Service Cup.

A Rule Clarification was then requested by the RAF in anticipation of the introduction of Polaris in 1968.

So over to you 622.

"...that's right sir. One lady owner, never raced or rallied and a full service history. And the best part about buying this vehicle on finance is the balloon at the end".
